Custom Block Shape Window Configuration from Ju

Dear Patrons!

Ju here :)

Today we have a special gift for you:
🎉 A new configuration for your block shape overview.

When you are a builder, you maybe noticed, that it is sometimes hard to quickly find the block shape that you need.
The vanilla block shape configuration is challenging for me since years. But now I noticed, that you can change it! Mindblowing for me 🤯😅.

With utter devotion I spent hours designing a better overview and putting it into the config. I tested it for many building weeks and I am pretty satisfied with the handling and blockfinding.
That's when the sharing can begin, yay! I hope, you like it!

I had a bit inspiration from others, who also tried to make a new config. Like the fact, that when you change the tab, similar blocks will appear at the same place in the grid. So smart.
But the overall arrangement logic cames from my brain and way of thinking.

To understand the logic, I made some graphics for you.
The graphics should be self explaining, since I made a legend.
But if you still have questions, feel free to ask! :)

To install the BlockShapesWindow.ecf, you have to overwrite it in the games config. Make sure to make a copy from the vanilla ECF for backup!

This is the path:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Empyrion - Galactic Survival\Content\Configuration

Maybe your path differ, but you see the empyrion file sequence.

If you have suggestions and feedback, its always welcome!

Have fun! 💗😀
